Known as the Miracle Berry, this jellybean-shaped fruit can make sour and bitter foods taste sweet - and the sensation lasts for up to two hours after eating. The fruit contains a protein called miraculin that binds to the taste buds on the tongue and âtripsâ flavours to appear sweeter. Scroll down for video.
Herbivorous means eating only plant food, and not animals. Mammals are generally animals with hair (but some, like dolphins and whales are smooth for swimming). They produce milk and suckle their young. So examples of herbivorous mammals are: horse, rhinoceros, cow, rabbit.
Herbivores eat plants, algae, and other producers. They are at the second trophic level. In a grassland ecosystem, deer, mice, and even elephants are herbivores. They eat grasses, shrubs, and trees. In a desert ecosystem, a mouse that eats seeds and fruits is a primary consumer.
